Lyrics
I pushed a button and elected him to office, and
He pushed a button and he dropped the bomb
You pushed a button and could watch it on the television
Those motherfuckers didn't last too long
I'm sick of hearing about the haves and the have-nots
Have some personal accountability
The biggest problem with the way that we've been doin' things is
The more we let you have, the less that I'll be keepin' for me
Well, I used to stand for something
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Trading in my god for this one
And he signs his name with a Capital G
Don't give a shit about the temperature in Guatemala
Don't really see what all the fuss is about
Ain't gonna worry 'bout no future generations, and
I'm sure somebody's gonna figure it out
Don't try to tell me that some power can corrupt a person
You haven't had enough to know what it's like
You're only angry 'cause you wish you were in my position
Now nod your head because you know that I'm right
Alright
Well, I used to stand for something
But forgot what that could be
There's a lot of me inside you
Maybe you're afraid to see
Well, I used to stand for something
Now I'm on my hands and knees
Trading in my god for this one
And he signs his name with a Capital G
Theories
This Track is possibly about George W. Bush and his administration, and about the problems with the whole election process.
